<div dir="ltr"><div>Congrats on launching this.</div><div><br></div>It's probably worth being clear on any potential conflict of interest here with this being an seemingly "official" haskell-foundation sponsored certification and whether or not Serokell is a funder of the HF and/or has seats on the board.<div><br></div><div>I would also suggest it's fairly bold to claim that this is in any way "objective" insofar as no exams are "objective", they merely test the subjective interests, experiences, and skills of the setters, and, crucially, an ability to succeed in exam conditions, which <b>many</b> people struggle with, for an extremely large variety of reasons. Your Haskell may be very different from my Haskell.</div><div><br></div><div>--</div><div>Noon</div><div><br></div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Mon, 24 Jun 2024 at 21:52, Jose Calderon via Haskell-Cafe <<a href="mailto:haskell-cafe@haskell.org">haskell-cafe@haskell.org</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div><p>Serokell and the Haskell Foundation are
excited to announce a community-led Haskell Certification Program (<a href="https://certification.haskell.foundation/" target="_blank">https://certification.haskell.foundation/</a>).
Serokell has developed an online testing platform for administering
practical and theoretical Haskell problems. Haskell is a complex
language, offering a wide range of techniques and features for
programmers. It’s simply not feasible for a novice or intermediate
programmer to master them all. The goal of the Haskell certification is
to help standardize what it means to ‘know Haskell’ at various levels of
experience.</p>
<p>As a community driven effort, we are soliciting self-nomination for
volunteers to take part in the organization and decision-making around
the certification process. These volunteers will help determine how the
certification process evolves and which questions are relevant to the
various experience levels of a Haskell programmer. Volunteers from
organizations that use Haskell professionally are especially welcome.</p>
<p>Please send your self-nomination to certification@haskell.foundation by the end of July 10th 2024.</p><p><br></p><p>Best wishes,<br><br></p><p>Jose Calderon<br></p></div></div>
